In a previous video https://youtu.be/RIRjwEgIwoo I had a look at a 2012 Ram 2500 with a few EVAP codes (P0456 and P0457) and the constant flashing of the "check fuel cap." We found out that the ESIM switch was bad as well as the pigtail. Napa brought us a new one and it is time to find out if that is all of the issues or not.
-Enjoy!

Echlin parts are purchased from a dealer network and should be original equipment parts.
jb weld on both sides
Great find on the hole
That syl-glide does look like a pretty handy rubber lube to keep around the old bedroom, I mean shop.
JB weld and done!
This guy needs a mudflap in front of the tire
A smokin' gun…or at least a filler neck!!
Flex seal it & call it a day ..
Good to see you saving a Mopar …
I love the video that was quite something else with a dang Russo on top of that filler neck wow
The rain and thunder in the background were so relaxing.
Oh Eric, just weld up the rust hole! LOL
People would be surprised just how many different butt connectors are available. My distributor’s catalog has 6 pages of them to choose from. I personally like the nylon over the pvc jackets. Looks way more professional. I keep all four sizes in standard and epoxy filled heat shrink. I keep step-down butts in both varieties as well. Thanks for the great content Mr. O!
Eric Chrysler don't use the fuel pressure sensor because like most things Chrysler, they're unreliable! 🤭
Edit: A blob of JB Weld for the fix?
You know Mr O is a real mechanic when he says that hes gonna fix the issue but its gonna still broke , and he was dead nutz right … The leak was still there , great job Mr O 👏👌
Blowin smoke up your special heat stink blue butt connectors.
You should change your sign off to "If you can't do it, I probably can" 🤣
Great work
Wow, Thanks for sharing how a master figures all that out.
Really enjoy your videos but we really need your rain in s.e. Iowa
Eric o what it is bro
I am JB-Welding that hole.
🎶 As the thunder rolls and the lighting strikes 🎶
A little JB Weld and the old Dudge will be right as rain!
Thanks alot Eric & Vanessa O
Little bit of jb weld and keep it moving…. at least temporarily.
You should go check on the neighbor. Have not heard the leaf blower running lately. I know it’s raining crazy, but that never stopped him before.
Count yourselves lucky on getting some random pop up thunderstorms.. around me, we’ve gotten barely any measurable rain, and most of our grass is simply dead and brown… I’m in southern Plymouth Massachusetts
Eric, you are working in real time, hindsight comes after the fact. The fact are the switch was faulty, you fixed it it, then moved on to the next thing. You said in part one that there may be an another issue, turns out there was. Nothing wrong with your process. a rust hole is unfortunate, especially when there may not me an OEM direct replacement if the fuel inlet was hobbled from something else.
Oh,I was getting excited that you were going to shove the welder tip into the fuel cap hole and weld the rusty leak shut 😛😛😛😛😛😛 excitement in your day !
Wonder why it's rusting out ,is the cap housing holding water around it ???If he is a farmer,then the build up of animal poo might be adding to the issue
A hole in the filler neck, well there's your problem, well done sir well done.
I always call them marine grade butt connectors
Weld that up in situ, call it a day.
From my understanding of connections and wiring harnesses in general is that they are more expensive because there are additional licenses the manufacturer has to play for because most connectors are designed by a third party.
Blowing smoke up your GAS. 😜
Wow nice find on that small hole behind the Gas cap Eric O good Video as always @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
I'd probably smudge some JB-weld on the outside of that hole there after hitting it with a little wire wheel and call it good enough. It's just a work truck and not worth taking all that stuff apart. Another thing you could do if you were brave enough if wrap a string around a wet towel and shove it in the filler– and wipe everything down and blow it off real good with the air hose to make sure there were no fumes—- and zap that little hole with a mig welder right there in it's place……….. I'd be using the JB-weld myself.
Huuummm 🤔 Alrighty then… Guess we'll never know what happened. Did ya like that guilt trip Eric 😂.. Closure.. gotta have closure man. Oh well…. Just kidding brother 😁 Don't get your feathers all ruffled 😂. Hey… NAPA called.. they said your sponsorship is ready… Lol.
Connectors are exspensive compared to switches Never understood that and toyota sells the plug seperate of the wires which can get even more exspensive Eric O nice that napa supplies the entire pig tail in one peice @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
I learned a bunch! Thanks!
Another one for the “Avoca Smoka” playlist!
You won't have that repair on electric ones. 🤣
Is that rain that I hear? We don't get that here in Texas anymore. Love the video.
another patch job that went wrong. Oh well you can fix it. Fix it with J B Weld. or old bubble gum.
Eric it sound like it raining if so I am glad you getting you get rain
Is there a part 3 ?
Connectors are so expensive because there’s a monopoly between the connector manufacturers and the auto manufacturers.
JB Weld, clean hole, fill hole. Done
Awesome as always Eric O. Appreciate it buddy 👍
